The paper presents the initial part of a study designed to understand the place of the present generation of engineering students in the global picture of their working life. The education represents an inestimable good that accompanies peoples through their existence. Higher education is the place were teenagers with different profiles modelled by their families, studies; experiences and so on come to meet, in most cases, the final education platform before employment. In light of this the higher education has the major role of prepare the students with the knowledge and skills appropriate to the labour market. That means with the knowledge and skills they need and their future employers are looking for. It involves a huge effort, dedicated to the transfer of knowledge and skills with a success rate as high as possible. To achieve this the study programs and the teaching methods must embody both objectives: to be tailored for the students and to meet the employers needs. That places the higher education on the border of the two parties, its role in achieving the outlined objectives being major.
